Mike, thanks for the compliment! I lurk here mostly, but I've always enjoyed your decoys and really enjoy your photos of you and your son. That harlie was a spur of the moment bird that I made just to have a sea duck in the contest. Turns out it was the only sea duck in the fancy gunner contest, so it got a free ride into the best of show tank. That's where it's fortune ended, though!
Anyway, thanks for the kind words, guys.
